Sorry mate, i had suspension about 2 months ago but it was shagged so i ditched it. probably would have passed rego, but was no good for me.

Very nice ride though, hope it treats you well

What suspension do you have in there right now?

Do you want to swap just for compliance or do you want to swap full stop.

Being in melbourne, i wouldnt want to do a swap just for compliance, but if you have something nice in there, maybe we can organize a permanent swap of some kind??

Welcome to the ever growing ranks of Stagea owners.

I have a spare set of standard front and rear shocks and spare pair of standard rear springs, sorry no spare standard front springs. Cost about $25 in freight to get them to you and I will want them back as soon as you are finished with them.

PM me if I can be of assistance

:D cheers :(

I have contacted the previous owner cause he had the stock suspension replaced with king springs and coilovers, waiting for him to call me back, I am in brisbane too ;) Once I hear I'll let you know.

Thanks Ska that would be great. I will just give you the full situation I'm in here. Ok, when the car lands in Brisbane for complaince it will need to be standard. J Spec has organised the complaince workshop to take off the modified parts (exhaust, wheels, suspension) and replace it with the standard gear. We have sourced and exhaust but still need to get some standard wheels and suspension. The workshop will fit all the standard gear on the car for compliance and then replace it back with the modified parts when the compliance process is done. Now, they are willing to do this for free IF I give them the set of standard suspension for them to use in future. So, I need to buy somebody's standard suspension and then give it to the workshop.

So any assistance would be great :blink: Thanks guys ;)

Nice car you got there, esp the colour, l hear maroon is a rare colour with Stagea's.

Looks like we're in teh same boat, gotta wait for the car to arrive in. Tell ya, the wait seems to drag along, and its only been 2 weeks!! :blink:

Nah dude, sorry. My car will live in Tamworth :blink: then will be moving to either Newcastle or Brisbane.

Just an update on the suspension. J Spec 'thinks' that the car has coilovers. So does that mean that I will need struts, shocks and springs?

Sorry, I don't understand the question.

Have a look in the Stagea Suspension thread and then ask the question again.

:D Cheers :(

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
